Web Service Signup

Web services are open standard (XML, SOAP, HTTP etc.) based Web applications that interact with other applications for the purpose of exchanging data. Customers can utilize web services to rate shipment, schedule pickups, trace freight, and more. Since web services are based on open standards such as HTTP and XML-based protocols including SOAP and WSDL, Web services are hardware, programming language, and operating system independent. This means that applications written in different programming languages and running on different platforms can seamlessly exchange data.

The Rate Estimate Web Service provides a way for developers to pass a number of criteria to ODFL programmatically and in return receive a Rate Estimate and other output for use in a client-side or local program. The service is a SOAP-based web service.

The Trace Web Service provides a way for web developers to pass a number of criteria to ODFL programmatically and in return receive tracing information on shipments.

The Pick-up Service provides a way for web developers to pass a number of criteria to ODFL programmatically and in return schedule a pick-up and receive a pick-up number or submit a bill of lading, which also schedules a pick-up.

The Document Service provides a way for web developers to request a shipping document for a given shipment using an OD Pro Number (Tracking Number).

Pro Lookup + Trace API combines cross-reference and tracking abilities. One method gives web developers the ability to find a Pro via reference numbers entered on the Bill of Lading - load number, pickup number or purchase order - and a second method uses the Pro to obtain tracking information.
